A part of the WWE World is still living in the lull of a spooky yet dreamy segment of Uncle Howdy and his family debut. The spooky massacre full of blood and destruction only made it worth the wait, with fans insanely whooping. Uncle Howdy made his much-drafted entry to the WWE ring with a careless, stone-cold demeanor while a chunk of his crew members was found lying brutalized in the gorilla and the backstage area.
Even though the faces of the victims were mostly shrouded in the dark, one single familiar face was enough to catch fans off guard. And it seems it moved the one and only CM Punk as well, who hysterically expressed his concern for the 38-year-old.

June 17th edition of Monday Night Raw hit on our screen as a special deal. The date was long teased for Howdy’s momentous homecoming. As the hundreds of QR glitches and other sinister hints already started to get outdated and tedious, Triple H decided to give it away slowly by revealing the date beforehand. Although a slim doubt existed that WWE might hold it off last minute, leaving them fobbed off again. But as soon as Jey Uso’s jaw-dropping victory match went down, some magic started to unfold.
The light turned off and Nikki Cross, Dexter Lumis, Joe Gacy, and Erick Rowan, each Wyatt 6 member, showed up in their new spooky characters as part of the stable. But as the camera panned in a different direction, Chad Gable was found fallen and it triggered different emotions inside the WWE locker room. CM Punk posted a hilarious meme on his latest IG story and captioned it, “Look, how they massacred my boy” denoting Howdy’s bloody attack on Gable & Co.

Backstage personality Cathy Kelley also sent her thoughts on the ferocity, but only to give Gable a taste of his own medicine. She wrote, ”Chad been playing the victim for months but now he actually is one 😭 #wyatt6.” Diving deeper, let’s just quickly scoop into the background of the attack.
Why did Chad Gable fall into the Howdy trap? Exploring the reasons
Gable has recently turned extremely inconsiderate to his stablemates. The Alpha Academy members, including Otis, Akira Tozawa, and Maxxine Dupri, were subjected to constant physical tormentation, and Dupri was more prone to verbal barbs. This unkind attitude of the former Raw Tag Team Champion might not have gone unnoticed by Howdy, who seemingly made him pay back for it.

Also, there can be another scenario. Gable might not be a long-term target for Wyatt Sicks, as they are too new to find their footing properly in the division yet. Rather, it could just be that Gable casually was roaming around the proximity area of the new heel-stable and hence fell victim. Now, it will be riveting to see how the newly minted Howdy storyline pans out going forward.
